In Lexioes, Portugal...

Now I have been at work/sea for little more then 8 weeks.
And there will be a few more before I go home again.
Sadly enough, I have had problems with logging in to blogger, so
all the pictures I was planing to place here will have to wait till I get home.

At the moment we are loading about 15500 cbm of Rafinate, for Themes...
So after completion we will steam northward again.

I will soon go out on my evening watch so its due time for a cup of coffee...

All my bags are packed and I am ready to go...

I'm leaving on a jet plane, don't know when I'll be back again...

Yes it's time at last, I'll catch a train for Copenhagen and then a flight to Amsterdam. And to keep me company I just went out to the local bookshop and got my self a copy of Dan Brown's "Angels & Demons". I prefer to read the book before I see the movie.

During the summer I will try to post ever so often, and give you a picture of life at sea, every now and then ;-)

Have a great summer !

Waiting times...

This has been a fairly nice spring after all, life have it's ups and downs, but altogether life have been fair to me. At the moment I am waiting for a phone call, the phone call. That will tell me where and when I will go to work.

I look forward to it, I really need to get a change of scenery, and of course improve upon my economy. This year did not start the way I was hoping, but the change might be for the best in the long run. Furthermore time has really been flying, so before I know it, this year will be a dim and distant memory.

School has been very interesting this year, I learnt a lot of new things, and that's always great. It, sort of, brings meaning to this life I am living at the moment. So far, all exams have gone well, still waiting on the result of the last one though, but I am hoping for the best.

I might be home for a longer time that I initially thought. If so, I have to get me some more victuals. It's a bit tricky to live both economical and healthy, even if I do my very best, they don't always coincide.

Simple life

I bought a rosé wine today out of curiosity, AUSSIE - Flamingo Blush (nr 6452), and I got pleasantly surprised. Is a lovely wine to brighten up a rainy day, or to enjoy on a sunny balcony. It is not that sweet, but its just sweet enough, for a rosé wine.

The last exam-period for the term are about to start, fingers crossed...

And after that I will go back to work, or to be more precise M/T Ramira, I look forward to have a new ship, a lot of new things to learn. And as part of my summer I will try to read up on Astronomical Navigation and Morse. So that I will have a head start on next term.

There is light in the other end of the tunnel, I see it, and I long for it !

A new, real life worth living, and share with those I love and hold dear.

Quiet

Well, been quite quiet for a few weeks, and I guess that I dont have that much to write about sometimes. I look forward to the end of this term, and the possibility to go to sea, and work again. It is sort of depressing to see your savings slowly diminish.

Spring is here though, life is just a triffle of a bit brighter and enjoyable.

I am content,

although,

life could be a lot better...

Sunshine, in heart and soul !

It feels like springtime, its about 15 ° C and sunny !

And today, at last I got the last results from the last examination period,

and it was a pass !

So my comfort gift to myself became a "well done gift".

Now I am going out, but only to the balcony, to continue my reading...
